Not big news. They've been talking for weeks
ESPNs contract with directv expires 9/30 and part of the renewal is longhorn and sec.
They are just hammering out details including price per customer
It will probably get done around mid August from what I'm hearing in the biz

Too much money involved. Mutually advantageous for both, so a deal in very near future is imminent.

Anyone know the approximate cost of the network to the subscriber?

Do you know if watchespn will be included in new contract?

It would be a dumb move to not carry it, a d DirecTV knows it. People would switch providers over not having SEC Network.

Right. The simple fact that there will be multiple live games on the sec network makes it critical to make a deal. They have way too much to lose.

It wouldn't be very good marketing if they said they were nowhere close.

It would probably be worse marketing to come out and say how close they are and how they expect to be able to provide that channel to their customers soon and then not do it. Nice troll attempt though.

The domino effect is engaged. Directv will get a deal done.

What is the deal with the online portion? Will you have access if your cable provider has and agreement with the SEC Network? Or will it be like ESPN 3 and you Internet provider will need to have an agreement?
Or can anyone subscribe? Like GZ?

And here is my daily update...22 days till I officially make the switch from DTV to U-Verse.
Posted on 7/18/14 at 12:44 pm to LSUfan4444
We cannot switch to U-Verse, but then, we have Dish, and it will be included in the AT200 (and possibly the AT120) and above for no extra charge.
